ommunications Setup Options
Further Talkback, Listen and Red Light communication options are accessed via the TFT screen. The 16 boxes at the base
of the screen indicate the functions assigned to the 16 buttons in two rows of eight below the screen. Press the SSL button,
followed by Misc > Setup and locate the following options in the list:
Talkback switches are: Select the operation of the talkback buttons: Momentary / Latching / Auto
(Play) / Auto (Record).
Listen switch is: Select the operation of the Listen buttons: Latching / Auto (Play) / Auto
(
Record).
Red light switch is: Select the operation of the Red Light switch: Manual / Auto (Play) / Auto
(Record).
TB switches disable Listen: This allows the Listen function to be switched off when talkback is activated,
thus avoiding feedback problems.
TB to FB: (Sums / Replaces) When assigning talkback to foldbacks, this option defines
whether talkback sums with or replaces the normal foldback signal.
The ‘Auto’ modes inhibit the Talkback and/or Listen switches when the transport Play or Record tally is lit. Selecting red
light to one of ‘Auto’ modes makes it follow the Play or Record tally.
Oscillator
The ‘oscillator’ is in fact a comprehensive tone and pink noise generator. It is located above the TFT screen, contains
controls for frequency, level and routing of tone or pink noise to the Mix, Record and Track bus outputs and to the monitor
outputs for use in monitor calibration.
OSC ON activates the oscillator output (surprise, surprise!). It’s good practice to turn the
oscillator off when recording, to prevent any accidental routing to desk outputs.
PINK ON switches the output from tone to pink noise. Note that the pink noise level can
only be adjusted using the Pink ‘Cal’ preset.
LEVEL This pot adjusts the level of the tone generator from -25dBu to +20dBu. When
fully anticlockwise, a preset ‘Cal’ level is selected which can be calibrated using
the multi-turn presets located below the level control; a red LED lights to show
when the level control is in the calibrated position.
FREQ This rotary switch provides six preset frequencies.
The oscillator may be routed to the TRACK busses, the MIX bus and the REC bus (individually or simultaneously) using
the switches to the right of the LEVEL pot.. The oscillator output is also available on an XLR on the centre section
connector panel.
